paulk101 Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 Hi All My wife wanted a tough reliable car with plenty of room in the boot for a dog crate and the occasional ability to pull horses. We Settled on a older model X Trail (DY58 VGN) it does everything required but its far from reliable it since we got it it seems like its always been in the garage It came with a new MOT then only months later one front wishbone broke and the other was seen to be badly corroded (errr how did it get an MOT before being sold...... ???) Last week it blew a coolant hose to the gearbox It just passed this years MOT yesterday without issue, and now my wife tells me there is yet another light on the dash !! Before i take it in (again) is it worth investing in a reasonably priced ODBII scanner to do a little bit of self diagnoisis ..? N.B I'm not particularly mechanical !! Any particular recommendations on these ..? Many thanks and kind regards in advance ! Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevor Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 Sorry to hear you're having issues with it and am sure they will eventually settle down once the current problems are sorted. I would look on eBay for a cheap OBDII scanner that can run through your phone (look for ELM327 Bluetooth variety that says its suitable for use on Nissan Let us know what you find Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
